How wrong are we likely to have been? 2025
Co-created with Eloise Moody, using everyday materials from the artists’ local environments
Part of Cultural Reforesting at Orleans House Gallery, 27 March to 31 August 2025
At the National Physical Laboratory, close to Orleans House, the Lab’s Guides to Measurement ask How wrong are we likely to have been? The Guides explain that it’s not possible to be sure of a ‘true answer’ and so the ‘concept of uncertainty’ plays a part in any measurement.
As Eloise and I explored Orleans House, its woods, grounds and art collection, making our own assessments, how wrong were we likely to be? And what about others who had been here before us, or would be here after us? We began a postal conversation, writing around this question and sending each other artworks. This exchange was exhibited as part of Cultural Reforesting at Orleans House Gallery in 2025, a group show featuring work by artists including Ackroyd & Harvey, Mónica Alcázar-Duarte, Ama Josephine Budge, Abigail Hunt and Ivan Morison.
